Abstract

Multicolored puzzle in the form of the wheel is an invention in the area of toys industry and it contains two central parts (3) which are connected with an axle (6). One central part (3) can revolve around the axle in direction shown by the arrow (7) or opposite, moving that way the small movable parts (1), which are connected to the central parts (3), into another position. Two central parts (3) carry three different colors each (1n, 2n, 3n) and (4n, 5n, 6n) which determine if the small movable parts (1) are in correct position near the field with the same color or user is supposed to move them to their corresponding colored field, by turning the central parts (3) in the direction shown by the arrow (4) or opposite, using the 'wings' (5) for easier turning and by turning the one half of the wheel when the three colors from the front side are transferred to the back of the puzzle.

Description

MULTICOLOREDPUZZLE INTHEFORM OFAWHEEL

The area of technology that invention is in -

Multicolored puzzle in the form of a wheel is completely new and original invention that corresponds to the area of toys industry.

Technical problem

This invention can be used, besides the fun, as a didactic toy for imagination and intuition development for kids or adults, because of huge number of possible combinations.

Technical condition

Regarding the original construction, the invention is not a fill-in for any other invention so far, it is a completely new innovation.

Explaining the essence of the invention

The puzzle is contained of movable and immovable parts, that are connected amongst each other, and they have six different colors on them. Small movable parts revolve around the central parts, thus loosing their field marked with the same color on the central parts. To make it possible for the movable parts to lose their order, one half of the wheel is revolving around its axis, thus moving the movable parts from the front side to the back of the puzzle. This motion creates a problem of putting back the mobile parts to their starting position, which is marked with the same color, on the central parts of the puzzle.

Short description of the design -

The invention is shown on the design in which:

Figure 1 : Shows the front side of the puzzle, which is identical to the back side where you can see the small moving parts and central parts of the puzzle. Figure 2: Shows the cross intersection of the puzzle.

Figure 3: Shows the invention in the moment of revolving of the one half of puzzle around its axis. Detailed description of the invention

The figures are showing the multicolored puzzle in the form of the wheel, in its original dimensions, which is contained of six small mobile parts (1), which are connected with the central parts of the puzzle (3). Small movable parts (1) are revolving in the direction shown by the arrow (2) or in the opposite direction, that way they are changing their position and they are crossing from one half of the wheel (3) to the other. Every small movable part (1) carries two different colors, one on the front and one on the back side. In figure 1. we can see the puzzle from the front side and it is identical to the back side. Six small movable parts (1) are marked with: lp, 2p, 3p, 4p, 5p, and 6p. They are connected with the two halves of the central part (3) on which there are six different fields of different colors, and they are not movable: In, 2n, 3n, 4n, 5n, 6n. Two central parts of the puzzle (3) connected with an axle (6) and the central part is revolving around that axle in direction shown by the arrow (7) or opposite, this could be easily seen in figure 3. Central parts contain a half-circled "wings" (5) that are being used for easier rotation of the central part (3) in direction shown by the arrow (4) or opposite. Half-circled "wings" (5) can also be used to stop the small movable parts (1) from falling out of the puzzle, while the central part (3) is revolving around its axle (6), in direction shown by the arrow (7) or opposite, this could be seen in figure 3. In figure 1 we can see that every small movable part (1) is positioned next to the field of same color on the central part of the wheel (3) (lp next to the In, 2p next to the 2n, 3p next to the 3n etc.). If we rotate the central part (3) in the direction shown by the arrow (4), for one field, then the small movable part lp will be next to the field 2n, part 2p will be next to the 3n and so on, while the 6p will be next to the In field. Now if we rotate one half of the wheel as shown in figure 3 and rotate the small movable parts (1) a few more times, small movable parts (1) will lose their correct position. Than it will be a problem to get every small movable part (1), back into their original position which is the essence of this invention.

It is important to mention that the puzzle can have more variants, with different numbers of small movable parts (1) and different combinations of color order.

Claims

The patent request-

Multicolored puzzle in the form of the wheel contains two central parts (3), which are connected with an axle (6). One central part is revolving around the axle in direction shown by the arrow (7) or opposite , and by doing this it is transferring three, of six small movable parts (1), which are connected to the central parts (3), from the front side of the puzzle to the back side (figure 3), which is identical and it also has six differently colored fields on the central parts (3) marked with (In, 2n, 3n, 4n, 5n and 6n) different colors. These colors determine the right position of the small movable parts (1) which are also marked with different colors (lp, 2p, 3p, 4p, 5p and 6p). These small parts can be put in the right position close to the field of the same color on the central part (3) of the puzzle, by revolving the central part in the direction shown by the arrow (4) or opposite, using the half-circled "wings" (5) for easier turning (4) and by forming the half of the puzzle like in the figure 3.
